Lifecolor PG104 is characterized by high purity and color fastness, ensuring consistent effects even when mixing in batches. Its applications include both historical modeling (WW2 vehicles, modern tanks, battle dioramas) and civilian modeling—wherever soot marks, exhaust smoke, soot stains, or heavy wear of structural elements are needed.

Lifecolor PG104 pigment can be used both dry (drybrush method—for highlighting recesses, panels, crevices) and as a thick paste once mixed with water, isopropyl alcohol, turpentine, or lighter fluid. When mixed with dedicated binders, the pigment hardens, allowing you to create 3D effects—for example, on the surfaces of tanks, weapons, or undercarriages of armored vehicles. Application with a brush or airbrush (min. 0.3 mm) provides complete control over the achieved effect.

We recommend this pigment to modelers of all skill levels, although due to its precision and the ability for advanced mixing, it is best suited for intermediate and advanced users (difficulty level 2/5). Lifecolor PG104 perfectly complements a collection of weathering products, allowing for the creation of highly realistic effects on military, aviation, and civilian models from any historical era.
